Juglans nigra
A relative of the Butternut. Known for its rich dark-brown heartwood and beautiful bright yellow leaf display in autumn. Its nut is a valuable food source for wildlife. Black walnut's release of juglone from its roots is tolerated well when planted amongst other native species such as hemlock, maples, oaks, eastern white cedar, and cherries, to name a few.
